hello @Irish89 yes exactly after my interview march 2022, was put in AP, but the consulate had kept my passport. Early July 2022, they requested for me to submit DS-5535 and I was in AP again. So AP all together for 24 months. March 2024, they sent me the email requesting a new medical, Canadian police clearance and passport, and pictures. it came unexpectedly (as I was actually traveling when I received it). As I mentioned earlier after receiving the DS-5535 I was not checking my case as often on CEAC as I knew it would be a long while.. I just kept on living. Came back from trip, got an appointment early April to do medical, and received my fingerprint clearance last week and went to send everything.
does anyone know how long the wait is now? after they asked for the additional documents? CEAC had an update today.. im i getting closed to the long awaited "issued" ??
